Emotional Tapestry

mrdreamjeansI'm in a bit of a contemplative mood. Pondering feelings; undecided on answers, interested in opinions. Here's a couple of the concepts which I'm mulling/find amusing and I'd like to know how others feel.
1) Have you ever had a moment of pure joy? If you have an example, please share. I'd like to hear it and read about it.
2) The statement - "You can never love someone too much." I believe this to be true and would add, "or too well". Do you agree or disagree?
3) Do you believe in the concept of having a "best" friend? If you do, tell me what your best friend means to you.
4) Do you believe in love at first sight?
When I have really been in love, I felt an instant, unexplainable connection to the other person that transcended simple desire; the chemistry was immediate. It just felt right from the get-go.
I've never taken things slowly, knowing someone for some time before discovering I was in love. I've heard this described as "dreary, rather like buying a car and not having to make payments on it for a year or two." I have a tendency to agree, but then I'm a hopeful romantic. If I did take things slowly, no matter how honorable my intentions, you can bet I was biding my time till the right person came along:)
Is this romantic hogwash to you or do you believe in love at first sight?
Just wondering.........

Best Friends
Date: 2004-07-16 05:16 pm (UTC)What was unexpected is that almost every one of them now knows the other, despite great geographic distance. They all like each other and in some instances have created friendships independent of me which I delight in and think is healthy. My best friends aren't required to like each other, but it's certainly lovely when it happens.
